study of Sanskrit than is made at present is essential for the cultivation of the Gujarati language as also for general mental culture.

A knowledge of Sanskrit Grammer is also very necessary for the proper study of Gujarati Grammer. Your compilation is therefore a welcome acqisition to the Gujarati literature.

Al Ha. I have seen the “ Sanskrit Bhasha Pradeep" by Mr. Thakordas • Jamnadas Panji, and it gives me pleasure to state that it is a
useful book. A good Grammar in Gujarati would at present be an oasis in a desert, and would be of much use in composition. I believe this book will be valuable to those who love purity of style. It is a noble and scholarly acquisition to the Gujarati literature, and students of Sanskrit might refer to it with advantage. The book will serve as a good library and prize book. The author has spared no pains to make the book valuable.
